Patent EP-0869524-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUKUI TAKAO
IPC: H01H27/06
Filed: 1998-03-28
Abstract: A safety switch that is constructed to change over the
connection contact when the actuator enters the operating
portion of the switch proper and the operating rod at the
switch portion moves in response to this, the actuator of
which has the inserting portion to the operating portion
formed with a pressurizing piece at the tip end and a
supporting piece for supporting this, and to the
pressurizing piece, there formed are the protruded portion
pressurizing surfaces located on both end portions and the
recessed portion pressurizing surface located in-between.
To this operating portion, there located are a driving cam
that rotates in response to the advance and retraction of
the actuator, restricting plates that are located on both
sides of the side of this cam and can rotate around the
rotation center of the driving cam, and a cam follower pin
that connects to the end portion of the operating rod and
whose both ends extend to the side of the driving cam. To
the driving cam, a groove cam that provides displacement
in the operation rod moving direction to the cam follower
pin is formed, and to each of the restricting plates, a
pin engaging portion located on the cam follower pin moving
passage and for restricting the move of the pin in the
initial condition where the actuator is not inserted, and
an elastic member for restoring the restricting plate to 
the initial condition, respectively, are located. And
when an attempt to rotate the rotating cam only in the
initial condition, the move of the cam follower pin is
prevented by these restricting plates to restrict the
rotation of the driving cam, and when the actuator is
inserted, the driving cam is pressed with the recessed
pressurizing surface of the tip end and at the same time,
the restricting plates are pressed with the protruded
pressurizing surfaces, and both the driving cam and the
restricting plates are rotated to move the operating rod.

Abstract: The device moves the fed-in recording medium (7) in a direction perpendicular to a swivelling axis to attain an operational position for action by an optical scanner (14). A reflective photosensor assembly (6, 11) is fitted on the same side of the recording medium as the scanner. This causes a signal to branch off, if the recording medium crosses light rays from the reflective photosensor assembly in an intermediate position different from the operation position. A drivable platen (3) perpendicular to a swivelling axis moves the recording medium. The reflective photosensor assembly switches the platen driver on or off upon a reverse movement to eject the recording medium before the platen releases the recording medium. The reflective photosensor assembly is fitted between the platen and the optical scanner.

Abstract: A modular exponentiator is adapted to receive a first
communicated signal and derive a second signal therefrom by
computation of a modular exponentiation of the form  b e    mod  n 
based on the first signal. The modular exponentiator divides
the modular exponentiation according to the Chinese remainder
theorem into first and second portions respectively having
modulus values p and q of approximately half of an original
modulus value n of the modular exponentiation. Each portion of
the modular exponentiation is factored into respective
pluralities of smaller modular exponentiations having
precalculated exponent values. The respective pluralities of
smaller modular exponentiations are then multiplied together to
provide respective intermediate products. The intermediate
products are then recombined to yield the modular
exponentiation result.

Abstract: An electronic device with a receptacle
connector, including a frame member (1) provided with a
shell; a printed board (3) with a solder land (3a); and a
center contact (26) with a tabular contact terminal. A
through hole (lc) is formed in the shell so as to extend
through the frame member, and the printed board is
disposed within the frame member. The center contact is
press-fitted to the through hole in order to make the
contact terminal protrude within the frame member such
that the tabular surface of the contact terminal is
positioned substantially perpendicular to the solder land.
When the contact terminal of the center contact of the
receptacle connector is soldered onto the printed board,
in order to widen the soldering area, it is desirable that
the land surface of the solder land and the opposing
tabular surface be set perpendicular to each other.

Patent EP-1010459-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KADOTA NAOHIRO
IPC: B01F27/91
Filed: 1998-01-14
Abstract: In order to improve the gas absorption property in a
gas-liquid mixing tank, the stirring power and aeration volume
may be increased. In an actual commercial scale, however, such
measures will cause the equipment to be expanded and the
necessary energy to be increased. Thus, it is not so easy to
improve the gas absorption property. Furthermore, when
operating a stirring blade unit developed recently in a
commercial scale, the rotation speed of the blade unit must
be much increased to obtain a certain effect of stirring. And,
increasing of the rotation speed will also arise other problems
that the equipment structure becomes complicated and expanded
(the blade unit cannot be fixed in the stirring tank easily).
Under such the circumstances, it is an object of the present
invention to solve such the prior art problems and provide a
gas-liquid mixing blade unit that can absorb a gas efficiently,
as well as it can reduce both the manufacturing cost and
installation space. 
     In order to achieve the above object, the stirring blade
unit of the present invention is characterized by a perforated
cylinder 2 formed around the discharge type internal stirring
blade 1 so as to be rotated together with the stirring shaft.
The numerical aperture of the perforated cylinder is 30 to 50%.
The internal stirring blade unit 1 uses a discharge type
stirring blade unit used for gas-liquid mixing of a general
fermentation tank. Thus, the gas-liquid flow discharged from
the blade unit in the horizontal direction hits the perforated
cylinder formed around the blade unit certainly. Due to this
hitting of the gas-liquid flow against the perforated cylinder,
the pressure of the flow is changed significantly to refine
the gas bubbles so that the gas absorption property is improved.
The stirring blade unit of the present invention will thus be
suitable for gas-liquid mixing necessary for fermentation,
aeration, reaction (hydrogenation and oxidation) tanks, etc.

Abstract: A microbiosensor for the continuous monitoring of chemical substances in fluids. 
     For the last two decades much work has been done in developing biosensors with
specific applications (industrial, biomedical and environmental among others) that can now compete
with the classical analytical technologies but these apparatus, that are based on the retention of
microorganisms in membranes, have intrinsic limitations. The two principal innovations brought
forward in respect of the present technology are; 
     The continuous availability of microorganisms when using a chemostat which allows
the monitoring of samples with elevated toxicity, discarding the microorganisms used after every
reading, eliminating the membrane which physically separates the medium to be analyzed and the
transducer, thus allowing the amplification of the linear range of the signal and drastically reducing
the time needed to reach a steady signal. 
     It is presented a microbiosensor system to monitor on-line chemical substances in
fluids. An example of the application is the using of the system to determine the on-line biochemical
oxygen demand (BOD) in water.
